<p>The Bama fans are truly caustic, but moreso on other sites. Nothing new, just a fresh target for them. Most comments from the NFL people have said, essentially, that the whole situation is weird, but nothing illegal has occurred and it really has nothing to do with football. One sportswriter even said he discussed it with his college-aged kids, and they didn’t think it was weird at all. He decided he was just too old to understand!
I expect Manti will have the last laugh. “Dropping” a bit in the draft will usually land you with a better team, and he will most likely go in the first round. I hope he stays out of the limelight and lets it fade away. The only ones he needs to answer to in the future are NFL interviewers.<br>
Like others, I have had a hard time understanding the extreme hatefulness of so many commentators.</p>
